This 2I will explore the feasibility for establishing a Youth IT Center. The objective of the center is to create a favorable ecosystem for young people economic independence. The purpose of Youth IT Centers would be to promote IT studies and help youth build IT skills, while helping them come up and develop innovative ideas. The 2I will conduct a research with young people about their opinions on what is needed to be provided by the Center. Also, the initiative will support development of a comparative analysis for IT Centers existing in the region and based on the findings will propose a model for an IT Center and its institutional set up. All these inputs will be consolidated in a Strategy document for establishing the IT Center which will be discussed with stakeholders and relevant authorities.
